Default ap2 oem or aftermarket lip?

So i bought a lip from someone and they are certain that it is oem. However, I dont see the ABS Honda letters anywhere on the lip. I do see on the inner side of the lip this: "FLIP-PU-S2KP2-OE"
I am thinking the PU stands for Poly Urethane which the oem lip isnt made out of. Most aftermarkets are poly urethane. Can someone confirm for me if it is oem or not.

I have my OEM lip somewhere and I think the tabs that stick out are metal if i remember correctly.
My hunch is that it isn't OEM.

Likely a BaysonR replica, will fit pretty well and look like OEM as long as it is not distorted in shape. Hopefully you paid a reasonable price for it?

Most aftermarket lips are polyurethane and you can use a heat gun to easily form along the bumper. But thats only if its a loose fit. If its fitting too tight, then you may be out of luck.

Good luck
